Jehzel Ortiz

     Jehzel Ortiz is a Puerto Rican born artist hailing from the small strawberry of the world, Plant City, FL. He specializes in Black & Grey tattoos, more specifically in Realism & Illustrative styles. His style is characterized by a balance of smooth and peppery shading, mid tones, and varying line weights. He enjoys tattooing imagery like statues, flowers, and ornate filigree designs. The approach to his style is methodological and precise: “The design and tattoo must be created with art theory, longevity, and minimal skin damage in mind.” “The one thing that inspires me is beauty; people say that ‘beauty is in the eye of the beholder’, I just think that is wrong. Beauty is something that can be universally perceived and mathematically proven.”
